Hi, I've been working on a map about door-down . map I did 1 prefab . This is: 1 door + origin => script brush model (not targetname) 1 trigger => trigger damage (targername tiggerPuerta) Connect enttities: trigger --- W ----> door so, trigger.targer => Door I have put in map several doors in different directions. part of script Code: checkDamage() { self waittill ("trigger"); puerta = getent(self.target,"targetname"); // get door iprintlnbold ( puerta.angles ); // all show me angles (0,0,0) playfx (level._effect["tablas"], puerta.origin +(0,0,30) ); puerta playsound ("breakMadera"); //puerta rotatePitch (-90,1); puerta rotateRoll (-90,1); puerta waittill ("rotatedone"); iprintlnbold ( puerta.angles );// all show me angles (0,0,-90) self delete(); // libero memory } questions 1.-How can we know the orientation of the door? Certainly, I would make an "if" if door orientation "x" ---> door rotatePich (-90.1); if door orientation "y" ---> door rotatePitch (-90.1); 2.- another questions . How can I allow only the melee attack? if shot with weapons to "trigger" I don't want this to work, I found this function out there that can give some idea. "Self enableGrenadeTouchDamage ();" Regards ;) Excuse my language. I don't speak English

puerta.angles should tell you the angles of the door. The comments are what the game prints? // all show me angles (0,0,0) // all show me angles (0,0,-90)? If so, does it also do that if you change puerta rotateRoll (-90,1); to puerta rotateRoll (90,1);, for instance? Or does it then return 0,0,90? 2nd: Use a trigger_damage, press N and tick the boxes... pistol_no, rifle_no, etc..

Well.. the script obviously returns the correct angles, so you can use them in your script do determine the doors orientation. what kind of script are you using for your if door orientation "x" and if door orientation "y" script? What exactly are you having problems with?

these angles belong to the door after falls. and I need know the doors orientation, before they fall. look here : "checkDamage()" . before starting the rotation of the door (door down) => all doors have angle (0,0,0), being that I am placed in different positions in map. you understand ? . Some doors are oriented to the south, anotherr to the west, another to the north ... but the scritp shows me angles (0,0,0) for all. I don't understand what happening ???. the script Code: checkDamage() { self waittill ("trigger"); puerta = getent(self.target,"targetname"); // angle before of door-down . //all doors return ( 0,0,0) . why ??¿¿ iprintlnbold ( puerta.angles ); if ( puerta.angles == ( x,x,x ) ) // I don`t know xxx. is precisely what I want to know. //why all dorrs show me 0,0,0 ? in previous line puerta rotatePitch (-90,1); if ( puerta.angles == ( y,y,y ) ) // I don`t know yyy. is precisely what I want to know. puerta rotateRoll (-90,1); playfx (level._effect["tablas"], puerta.origin +(0,0,30) ); puerta playsound ("breakMadera"); // this 2 lines are only for my puerta waittill ("rotatedone"); iprintlnbold ( puerta.angles ); self delete(); } saludos.-

That's because, in the prefab, the orientation of your door is 0,0,0. If you want this to work, you'll have to make all the doors seperately in your map, not by using a prefab.

I don;t speak spanish. But PROJ_NO is turn projectile damage off.. like grenades and rockets. SPLASH_NO is turn splash damage off, like when a grenade explodes close to the trigger.
